Product Description

The Beckhoff device with the Product ID FC7501-0000 is a very efficient SERCOS II Lightbus, which is an FC Lightbus Card and as a PCI PC interface card, it is capable of speeding up data communication quite effectively. Designed to fit SERCOS Data Rate 2, 4, 8, and 16 Mbaud, the card presents versatility in practical applications of industrial automation. Systems where real-time machining and process synchronization is required would be easy with this card. The card also includes one fieldbus channel and two FSMA connectors designed in accordance with IEC 874-2 help to strengthen data transfer through fiber optic cables which is crucial in the field to prevent data transfer interference.

The TwinCAT system also supports exact process data synchronization such as in the case of SERCOS interfaces. A multiple card or channel bringing together one or several cards can as well be incorporated through a ribbon cable feat which can be appropriately utilized in instance when automation systems with the precise timing requirement are in play. There is a further soar in work ability on this card by it controlling over 254 devices like axes or I/O modules at the same time which significantly helps flexibility in system configurations as well as in its future extensibility.

The card’s I/O structure can be adjusted to any extent; meaning, users can choose whatever I/O data structure and its size. This is necessary particularly for demanding areas of applications which call for complex input/output requirements. Also, it comes with very short cycle times of 62.5 ms. In a temperature range of 0 to +55°C, the FC7501-0000 is intended for industrial applications, which is also UL-certified proving its durability. It can easily fit into the available PCI slots as its dimensions of 95 mm x 120 mm are quite small hence easing the process of mounting.
